Our new journal



Since our Yahoo 360 page is no longer useful for sharing photos, we are trying out Blogspot instead. We hope this will be a better platform for sharing journals and photos from our life here in Italy. Unbelieveably, we only have about 9 months left here! The time was gone by very quickly since Luke was born in January. We are now busy preparing for Luke's first Christmas. It's wonderful to see the wonder of the holidays through the eyes of a child again; I know this sentiment will only grow as Luke gets bigger and can really understand the joy of the season. For now, we sing our carols, read our Christmas books, and try to keep him from shredding all the packages before Christmas day. He loves tearing paper, so he should LOVE opening presents! We light a votive for our Nativity every night together. The Christmas story seems so much more salient to me now as I hold my own baby boy in my arms. A precious gift to us as Christ was to the world.
